Patent EP-0858900-A3 (EP)
Inventor: MIYAKOSHI TOSHIMORI
IPC: B41J2/205
Filed: 1998-02-13
Abstract: In the present invention, a processing liquid
and an ink are ejected so that ejected regions (2001
to 2004) of the processing liquid ejected in each
scan by a printing head and image regions (1001 to
1004) printed by black (Bk) ink printed in each scan
are mutually shifted in an auxiliary scanning
direction (A). By this, when ejection of the
processing liquid is to be performed in each scan,
the image region of the Bk ink ejected on the
processing liquid in the preceding scan is offset
from a boundary of the region, to which the
processing liquid is to be ejected. Therefore,
overlapping of the processing liquid on the portion
where the Bk ink and the processing liquid are
overlap in the preceding scan, can be avoided.
Accordingly, when printing is performed by ejecting
the ink and the processing liquid which makes a
coloring agent in the ink insoluble, drop-out of
color due to overlap of the processing liquid in the
joint portion of the image formed in each scan by
the printing head can be eliminated.

IPC: E21B33/14

Abstract: The present invention provides methods of stabilizing the
portion of an open-hole lateral well bore adjacent to and
extending a distance from the junction of the lateral well bore
with a primary well bore to prevent erosion and deformation of
the lateral well bore during subsequent drilling and other
operations. The methods basically comprise introducing a cement
slurry into the portion of the lateral well bore adjacent to and
extending a distance from the aforesaid junction under hydraulic
pressure whereby the cement slurry enters voids and pore spaces
in the walls of the well bore, allowing the cement slurry to set
into a hard mass in the lateral well bore and then drilling
excess set cement out of the lateral well bore. The
stabilization ensures that when a liner is cemented in the
lateral well bore, the junction between the liner and the casing
in the primary well bore is sealed.

Abstract: An array of stimulators associated with a personal communications device
for providing the user with tactile messaging respecting call processing or call
network status. The array is positioned on the device so as to be in contact with
the user while the terminal is carried or worn, on a wrist, for example. The
stimulators of the array, are activated independently so as to provide the user with
an encoded message of call processes such as alerting, dial tone, busy signal, etc.
Preferably each status is associated with one of a set of unique patterns of
operation of the stimulators recognizable by the user as tactile image or pattern of
operation, rather than necessitating tactile sensation of individual sequences of
each stimulator. Advantageously audio and haptic signalling is synchronised to
provide a tactile warning to alert user to impending audio signal, and thereby
allow a lower level, i.e. quieter, audio signal to be used, because the user is primed
by the tactile signal to expect the audio signalling. Thus the audio threshold for
effective signalling is reduced and obtrusiveness of audio signalling in public
places may be reduced when used in combination with tactile messaging.

Abstract: An ultra-stable microwave output with less jitter
than a prior art atomic oscillator is obtained and an
ultra-short optical pulse train is generated with a
repetition frequency stabilized at the same level as a time
standard. The repetition frequency of a regeneratively
mode-locked laser pulse oscillator with a superior
low-jitter characteristic is locked directly to a
resonance frequency of various atoms. The oscillator
provides the means (27) for detecting the frequency
difference between the clock signal frequency and a
predetermined atomic resonance frequency and outputting
it as an error signal, a cavity length tuning device for
varying the length of a laser cavity so that the clock
signal frequency and the predetermined resonance frequency
coincide, and a device (16) for negatively feeding back
the error signal output from the frequency difference
detection device (27) to the cavity length tuning device
(18). This allows the generation of an optical pulse train
(optical output) and a clock signal (microwave output) of
a repetition frequency stabilized to the predetermined
atomic resonance frequency.

intervals between the detected frame synchronization signals,
and stores this information in a memory, together with a
history of counts of frame synchronization signals of

synchronization is acquired, as determined from the stored
count values, enabling frame synchronization to be acquired

Abstract: A computerized method and system for dealing cards and managing wager accounts is
described. The system manages a player account and a carry-over account by debiting and
crediting the accounts for the amounts of wagers and winnings respectively. The system
accepts and commits a player ante, which the system duplicates as a fourth and a fifth card
wager before dealing the first three cards to the player. After the player receives the first
three cards, he or she may indicate to the system their election to play or pass the fourth
card wager. The system commits the fourth card wager upon election of the play option.
The system carries the fourth card wager over to a next hand, upon election of the pass
option. Following the player election, the system deals a fourth card and provides the
player with a similar play or pass option for the fifth card wager. The system requires play
of either the fourth or fifth card wagers to commit the respective wager. Wagers that are
not played are not committed and are carried-over to the next hand. Only a committed
wager can win. The system also provides the player with an option to place two
proposition wagers. One proposition wager is on a single hand, the other proposition
wager is on a list of predetermined hands with different odds for each hand. The system
does not carry over proposition wagers. Wagers that are carried over from one hand to the
next are credited to the carry-over account and are available for other wagers in subsequent
hands, but are not available for direct withdrawal by the player. All winnings are credited
to the player account. The balance in the player account is available for direct withdrawal
by the player.
